I introduced Mike to Gotham many years ago as I did Raj Goel, Geraldine Newman, Alice March, Paula Oleska, Sylvie Beljanski, Phyllis Dubrow, Deborah Farkash, Jack Halpern, Gideon Schein, Barry Newman and so many others. It's thrilling to introduce contacts and friends to an organization in which their businesses can thrive and their lives can be enriched by the tremendous opportunity Gotham is if you just offer a friendly hand. Bring a guest and watch the magic.

Whether in person or on Zoom, meetings can be short and sweet, long and lovely, filled with fun, a snooze fest, or anything in between.

> Breakout #2 …  imagine being dispatched with instructions - and I mean INSTRUCTIONS! Sounds a  little bossy or pushy? It was more like LEADERSHIP. There was no messing around - we had an assignment and there was going to be an accounting upon our return. The result was purposeful and meaningful conversation.

The depth and breadth of the Gotham network is not to be taken lightly. The second breakout and follow up discussion was truly valuable.

In Gotham Westchester it was smooth sailing - all hands were on deck and Captain Mike made sure we were on the right course and arrived at our destination better for having travelled together.
